[b]Tyler - The Road[/b]

There was a moment of silence. Tyler's mouth fell slightly agape as he peered curiously at this woman who apparently knew Lynn. The fact that she was pregnant... this was likely Lynn's friend. As if whatever otherworldly powers that existed had decided to hand him a present. It was definitely a sign, and in that moment, Tyler felt overwhelmingly assure of himself.

But then she started asking even more questions. Questions that proved her naivety. Questions that proved [i]everyone's[/i] naivety. No one understood him or his vision. Not his most loyal men, not his ex-girlfriend, not even his own daughter. All anyone ever did was [i]stand[/i] in his [i]way[/i].

"What do I do to women, then?" Tyler asked. "What is it that you think I do? Because I thought Lynn would understand better than anyone what I do to women." He stepped forward now, his right hand balling into a fist. This woman dared to suggest he would [i]hurt[/i] his children. Brad started to move with him but Tyler held a hand out for him to stay. "I want your child to live. I want it to live and become a part of something bigger than just you or I." He looked past Jessalyn to speak to everyone now. "I do not do what I do out of [i]selfish desire[/i]." He practically spat out the words. "I do what I have to do!"

He looked back into Jessalyn's eyes. These words were for her specifically: "Lynn is alive. You will be reunited with her again. Come quietly with me, and I will let you speak to her."
